If Qb, I would go Geno over Nassib it doesn't mean they are the man , I would like to get a TE, Marty needs a TE.

- After taking two defensive players in round one the New York Jets still have desperate needs on offense, especially at the tight end position. We can confirm reports the team is very high on Travis Kelce/TE/Cincinnati and will consider him at some point today.

I agree man.and his tweets about him dissing the experts who didn't give him a high grade also was pouting.. Izdik is too smart to fall for Geno, think we pick WR or guard. Maybe 3rd rd if Glennon or bray if they are still there, but Im ok with not taking a qb this yr.

I'm in the minority, but I think Sanchez will have a better year under MM. If not, give Garrard a chance and draft one next year.

So a kid who thought (rightly or wrongly) that he was supposed to go top 10 doesn't go in the first round at all and he's a character question for being upset? And then, after being advised that he should go back to Radio City, decides to do exactly that?

Sorry, not quite following your logic. There are plenty of reasons not to like Geno Smith, not sure that is one of them.

Agreed. I am 38 years old, married with 2 kids and if I was embarrassed like that on TV I am not sure I would be able to handle it as well as Geno did.

It's not like he sat on the field like a little kid after losing a little league game:

What's worse, that or a QB going on stage when he's picked, actively moping, and then making it clear that he will under no circumstances play for the team that drafted him? Because Eli Manning and John Elway both did that. There are plenty of reasons not to want to draft Geno (I don't think he'll be a good QB) but his behavior last night isn't one of them.

Agreed.

I honestly don't get the Geno hate. 42 TDs and 6 ints. 71% completions. What the hell is the guy supposed to do? I believe that Geno will be the best QB in this class. Unfortunately, I think he is going to Philly after Jax takes Nassib. So that leaves us Barkley or Glennon.

And when one of these guys is our starter it will be fun to go back and pull up all the threads knocking Geno. All coming from fans of the team starting the Buttfumbler.

Unfortunately, I disagree and that's why I really don't want a QB now. No way does Izdik give up on a 2nd round QB after one year, especially since that 2nd round QB will barely play as a rookie.

Why not? Sanchez and Garrard will not be on the roster after the 2013, the Jets will absolutely need another QB even if they go "franchise QB" in round 1 in 2014. If the 2nd round QB can't beat out Sanchez and Garrard in training camp, his ceiling is not very high to begin with.

Speaking of 2nd round picks - where was Ducasse graded and was Tanny picking him in the 2nd round a total reach?

Ducasse was considered a likely first rounder by the time the draft rolled round and according to a prominent poster in the draft forum with knowledge of these things we actually were planning to take him with our first round pick until Kyle Wilson dropped.PFW had him rate their 4th best OT that year

Absolutely. Nothing prevents us from taking a QB at 1 because we took one at 39 the year before.

He needed to be told what the right thing to do was, and to do it. It shows a level of immaturity that he is not ready to be a starter (or even the clipboard holder) in the white hot market of NY. People get on Sanchez for eating a hot dog. This is much, much worse and indicates how he would handle being benched, not being the starter, etc.

It became trendy to hate the guy, but apparently from last night NFL teams were weary. I went to Rutgers and have watched a lot of Big East football. Smith is definitely a better player than Nassib. I don't see Nassib as a strong NFL player, his absolute ceiling is Andy Dalton, but he honestly won't even as good as that.

"hey Ryan Nassib, welcome to the club, you ready to be a JET! Let me introduce you to Vlad Ducasse, Austin Howard, and Willie Colon. Oh and over there is Santonio Holmes, he hates you already because you don't get him the ball enough. And that there is Stephen Hill, his hands are great for crushing stone but he's still figuring out the whole catching footballs thing. And that there is Jeff Cumberland.....yeah, um....Jeff Cumberland. You're gonna love these guys, go get em son! Woo!!!!!"
